New account, as my old one was tied to an email I no longer use and had some problems with it.

Still haven't done i yet, mainly because I'm lazy and have been driving it more. Gold is looking like the option I'll take. Had a look into the caliper covers, pretty funny looking. Don't see the point of trying to make them look like 4 pots. Most of the high performance cars I work on are two piston sliding calipers anyway.

Grey to be subtle or gold for the nice contrast with the red.

Red or gold if black isn't an option.

Hah caliper covers...
i like contrast too so for a red car I would probs go green, blue or gold to contrast it.

Also after replacing all the pads and disks, I now have a park brake that works.

Well here's the colour of my current calipers.

Been that colour for about 8 years now and the paint isn't holding up well. So any ideas? Could go red to match the car. Yellow again, but do a better job of it. Or maybe a gold if I can find some paint that will do it. Or maybe another colour?

My car is lucifer red with Enkie GTC01 wheels.
